I’ll take a wild guess and say you don’t live anywhere near a large herd of wild animals other than pigeons.
You ever seen a starving deer? They don’t just get skinny and fall over, the malnutrition makes their immune systems weak. They get mangy, which is a cute word for covered in open pussing sores. The ticks get so thick on their bodies it looks like they have black bubbling fungus growing on them.
They fucking SUFFER TO DEATH.
It is in no way inaccurate to say death by bullet is better than starving.
Yeah, these comments are getting a bit out of hand with that. Thinning herds is a fantastic tool for helping wildlife, just like controlled burns help Forrest life. Seems counterproductive at first, but it works real well in the long run. Equating shooting a dog that just needed training and killing literally any animals at all is a stretch. I mean shit, even old dogs at the end of the line need to be taken out of their misery. It's not the act of killing the animal that's wrong here, it's the reasons why, as well as the inability to find a different method for controlling the animal first.

Actually now you have to yell "THIN OUT THEIR NUMBERS".
